BRUSH CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
After each session of carpet cleaning, the brushes
and the brush housing should be cleaned. Before
cleaning or changing the brushes, always unplug the
machine from the power supply.
Brushes are removed without tools. After handle is
in locked position, tilt the machine back and rest on
handle. To release brush from spring clip pull spring
clip away from brush end cap. Lift brush out of
machine.
The brushes may be soaked in warm or hot water
using mild detergent, and then rinsed with warm
water. NOTE: Brushes with crushed bristles can
often be restored to original condition by soaking in
hot water.
Keep brushes clean and free from debris. Rotate
brushes after every use as this will increase the life
span of the brushes and ensure even wear.
Before reinstalling brushes, clean out machine brush
housing and hopper by wiping with a clean damp
cloth.
MACHINE MAINTENANCE
The Maintainer requires very little maintenance.
Wipe down the machine periodically with a clean
cloth. DO NOT spray water directly over the top of
machine.
!
CAUTION
Deformation of the brush bristles can result in
unbalanced running and excessive vibrating or
jumping.
The machine is fitted with a circuit breaker. In the
unlikely event of overloading, the circuit breaker will
automatically trip. It can be reset after approximately
30 seconds (or when the machine cools down) by
pushing the set button located on the cover housing.
